{"product_id":"minus-5-oar-on-penelope-cd","title":"Minus 5 - Oar On Penelope [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eCult hero Scott McCaughey is one of rock n' roll's greatest comeback stories. As a member of more bands than you can name (R.E.M., Young Fresh Fellows, Filthy Friends, Robyn Hitchcock \u0026amp; The Venus 3 to list a few...), Scott's underground and ever-rotating supergroup of The Minus 5 has remained one of the most enduring projects of his storied journeyman career. After Scott suffered a nearly-fatal stroke in 2017, it was under the The Minus 5 name that he put out the recordings of Stroke Manor, featuring the original songs that detail his recovery through music therapy. Oar On, Penelope! Is The Minus 5's first album of original material in over half a decade and features help from some of his most trusted allies: Peter Buck (R.E.M.), Patterson Hood (Drive-By Truckers), Debbi Peterson (The Bangles), Kurt Bloch (The Fastbacks), Spencer Tweedy and was recorded and mixed by legendary engineer Ed Stasium (The Replacements, Ramones, Talking Heads, you name it!). McCaughey's breadth of musical knowledge and appreciation is on full display, ranging from addictive power pop (\"Words \u0026amp; Birds\"), gnarly garage rock (\"The Garden of Arden\"), Neil Young-influenced Americana (\"Bison Queen\") and bite-sized psychedelia (\"Sharktooth\"). Scott McCaughey has never sounded more inspired, and that's something to celebrate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWords ; Birds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeath the Bludgeoner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLet the Rope Hold, Cassie Lee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Don't Want to Hate Anyone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Garden of Arden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLast Hotel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBison Queen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFalling Like Jets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurgundy Suit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlow in My Bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharktooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe Shall Not Be Released\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 634457195752\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yep Roc Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.30.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vinyl Revival Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53234628919456,"sku":"634457195752","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/5899\/5360\/files\/4408995-3330976.jpg?v=1770366578","url":"https:\/\/vinylrevivalrecordstore.com\/products\/minus-5-oar-on-penelope-cd","provider":"Vinyl Revival Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
